&%fith a myriad of items on it's
agenda, the American Institute of Architectural Students (AIAS) tried to
focus on bridging the gap between
the professional and
college world.
Boasting a record
membership of over
200 members, AIAS
improved it's administration with the installment of new officers. Brian James,
AIAS vice-president,
said, "This year's officers tried to make sure that AIAS
got enough exposure. We took part
in a sand-castle building competition
in Galveston this year. Last year, we
won the best t-shirt design at the
sand-castle building competition."
Another activity that AIAS took
part was the Mentor Program.
"Through this program, we were
able to give fourth year undergraduate and second year graduate
students a chance to develop a
#
.. .a great place to
meet new friends
and exchange ideas
about architecture.

firm indoctrination about what it
would be like to work in a particular
firm. It gives students an opportunity
to work in a relaxed atmosphere,"
said James.
AIAS provided support for other students
that were in the architectural field. The
club was also a great
place to meet new
friends and exchange
ideas about achitec-
ture. In a demanding
field such as architecture, students need others to help
them through the tiresome 5-year
program. James said, "The architecture program begins to start weeding
out people after the second year. At
the end of every year, our portfolios
are reviewed. Students with portfolios and GPAs that are not up to par
are removed from the program. AIAS
helps by easing the worries of being
in the architecture program."
